Elevated levels of serum angiopoietin-1, IL-17, osteopontin and CXCL-9 as markers of vascular inflammation in newly diagnosed PMR
sGCA in PMR has a biomarker signature that more closely resembles GCA than PMR. Baseline levels of angiopoietin-1, IL-17, osteopontin and CXCL-9 may help identify PMR patients with vascular inflammation. These may be a useful screening tool to identify PMR patients that would benefit from further work-up.
